    Warning: I'm an absolute beginner at blender and Unity so this might be a dumb question.

    I made this low poly character in blender and wanted to play a mixamo animation on it but it doesn't work.

    Any tips or advice? thanks

    I've never used Blender models, just models I import the Unity Asset Store or elsewhere so I'm not sure if something will break but you can download the animations from Mixamo and import them into Unity. Then you could set your model's animation type (under the Rig settings) to Humanoid or Generic, whichever works for your purposes.

    Afterwards, once you have the Mixamo animations downloaded and imported, you can create an animation controller for your model. Open it up in the Animator window and then you can drag in the animation clips into the space. From there you can start linking up your animations to try and achieve whatever you're hoping for!

    You can also refer to this tutorial series on using Mixamo for Unity, it should help give you an idea of what to do as well!
